Talk! All publicity is good publicity

Also published on Twitter

One reason INC’s narratives are gaining dominance is that RW simply isn’t pushing any narratives of its own.

Think: 2019-20 where RW was constantly on the offensive (even if on useless bartan-banging/SSR nonsense), or Trump in 2016. “All publicity is good publicity” applies in politics like nowhere else.

Govt is doing a lot; many good things are happening, but in stealth—while RW-aligned media wastes their time making BREAKING NEWS out of random gossip, giving people the feeling “RW media doesn’t care about any important issues; only Cong/left is bringing up the important issues” (because Cong/left are the only ones spreading any narratives at all, albeit ones that are antithetical to Indian national interests).

Things are looking really bad politically.

And all this while BJP has been delivering the most in terms of actual policy value: Economic reforms through state and stealth at breakneck speed, Operation Sindoor (or rather all the indigenization & build-up over the past 10 years that it revealed), Bangladeshi deportations, slum nuking, infrastructure spree; and I’m sure a lot more to come once Bengal is liberated.

Yes I know BJP/RSS’s ground-game is still top-notch. But ground-game is like “studying for exams”, whereas what matters long-term is creating coherent narratives and winning over Elite/Midwit Human Capital and the Institutions, even if they are not electorally significant.

The bulk of the room for improvement lies among organic RWs/BJP supporters like us, who are doing the shoddiest job. But to suggest some things to the govt/BJP itself:
